Overview

PLEASE NOTE: Due to the current Coronavirus pandemic, we have temporarily put all permanent vacancies on hold. Please do not be put off sending your application though, as we’ll be reviewing candidates as soon as we can. We expect this to be no sooner than week commencing 6th April. We’re helping to attract potential buyers who may be interested in buying a successful franchise operating in the Suffolk/Norfolk area. If you like the idea of self-employment, driving around the countryside, meeting customers and getting stuck into satisfying hands-on work then this might be something for you John Dyer has owned and successfully operated an Ovenclean franchise for over 15 years but is looking to sell due to his retirement in 2020. Ovenclean is one of five franchises operating under the umbrella of Franchise Brands PLC. Franchise Brands is a listed company on the AIM (alternative investment market). John operates his Ovenclean franchise as Ovenclean East Anglia and has over 2000 trading customers across Suffolk & Norfolk. It’s a great option for somebody who wants to really be their own boss and doesn’t mind getting their hands a bit grubby It can be very satisfying work and allows a great deal of freedom and flexibility around the Owner. John stepped back from a managerial role in logistics to buy his Ovenclean franchise back in 2004 and has been very happy and successful operating his territory ever since. Territory includes South-West Norwich and South/East Norfolk including; Poringland, Loddon, Bergh Apton, Long Stratton, Tivetshall St Mary, Pulham Market down to Harleston, Stradbroke, Fressingfield, Dickleburgh, Thrandeston, Diss, Rickinghall & Botesdale, then across the border to Eye, Gislingham, Mellis, Occold, Debenham, Mendlesham, Finningham, Hauhgley, Gt. Finborough, Stowmarket, Barking, Great Blakenham, Claydon, Needham Market, Rattlesden, Cockfield, Rougham, Beyton and Elmswell (full list of postcode territories available below). Unlike purchasing non-established territories from the Ovenclean franchise (which are valued at £14995 VAT), this opportunity presents the rare chance to purchase very well-established territory with a growing database of over 2,000 repeat customers. The hardest part in setting up a new business is marketing your services and securing appointments - with this opportunity all of that has been taken care of, particularly as John has built an excellent reputation for his services. A word from John… "To be a self-employed person is a big step particularly if you have never been so before, the comfort blanket is taken away No sick pay, paid holiday or colleagues around you. A franchise is a good way of stepping into self-employment, yes you have to take care of everything yourself but you have active support from a long established head office team and the trainer/mentor who will introduce you to the process during a two week on the job training course." As a franchisee you can control your work to suit yourself, once established and covering 3/4 jobs a day earnings before tax should be in the region of £60,000 per annum gross revenue. Realistically, you will need self-determination and drive to succeed, good interpersonal skills. You are dealing with the public in their most precious and safe place - their home. Good administration skills are vital, you will maintain and update a database used to recall customers for future appointments, this is one of the reasons why Ovenclean is a successful formula - regular repeat business, assuming you do the job well first time This is a territory established and operated for 15 years with over 2000 trading customers in NR4, NR14, NR15, IP6, IP14, IP20, IP21, IP22, IP23 and IP30. It could be sold as a whole or split into two areas; price would vary accordingly.
